Are you thinking of revamping your garden this Summer? Mallow Flowers are here to advise on flowers and plants that will bloom for you all summer long.
You need flowering plants that will bloom without much pampering and thankfully there is a vast range of summer plants for you to choose from.
Petunia
The beauty of petunias is that they have one of the longest flowering seasons right through from mid Spring to late Autumn.
Petunias are an ideal flower for your hanging baskets and are available in a range of colours. Petunias are guaranteed to brighten your garden.
Make sure to deadhead to ensure you get the summer out of your petunias.
Snapdragon
Another reliable summer flower is the Snapdragon which are an old favorite when it comes to Spring/Summer gardening.
Snapdragon flowers bloom profusely throughout cool weather and are real standouts in the spring or autumn garden.
Snapdragon tend to stop blooming mid summer but once you keep the plant watered regularly the will remain perky and last all the way to autumn.
Hydrangeas
Hydrangeas are an excellent summer flower choice as they are adaptable to many garden sites such as group plantings, shrub borders and containers. Hydrangeas flower blue in acidic soils and pink in alkaline soils.
Hydrangeas prefer sun in the morning then some shade in the afternoon however, many hydrangeas will grow and bloom if they are placed in partial shade.
Hydrangeas are beautiful flowers to harvest from your garden to display in your home in a bouquet.
This is just a very brief list of some of our favourite summer bloomers. To ensure that your summer plants remain bright and perky, regularly water and remove dead heads.
